Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: Do these Indian OEM handlebars come pre-wired?
A: No, they typically do not come with the actual electrical wires run through them, but they do come pre-drilled and notched with the precise openings needed for perfect internal routing of the factory wiring harness and throttle-by-wire components.
Q: Can I install higher handlebars without changing my cables?
A: It depends on the height difference. Generally, a bar that is 2 to 4 inches higher than stock may require new, longer control cables (clutch and brake lines) and wiring extensions. Always consult your service manual or a professional when making height changes.
Q: Are OEM handlebars stronger than custom aftermarket bars?
A: OEM bars meet strict safety and quality standards set by Polaris, ensuring predictable performance and durability under all conditions. While some aftermarket bars are excellent, OEM guarantees the material strength and fitment required for your high-performance Indian.
Q: What is the benefit of changing my handlebars?
A: The main benefits are comfort (reducing back and shoulder fatigue on long rides) and customization (changing the bike’s aesthetic). Choosing the right style can dramatically improve the riding experience.
Note: Handlebar heights are regulated by state and local laws. Accessory handlebars may not be legal in all areas or for all riders. Check state and local regulations. Follow all installation instructions to ensure that the handlebars are securely in place and are appropriate for rider size, control, and visibility.
